@t.t.e Год назад

This looks like you probably don't have the drivers probably configured in windows. If you go to devices and printers -> select the device -> right click -> select printer properties -> advanced Under driver there's going to be an option to select a new driver and select that. Try using that to get the driver you actually need for the device. I had the same problem with a few printers. Once I got the correct driver I got the better menu.

@louisrossmannsrandomwhatever Год назад

That worked! It did not work when I installed the driver off of their website but it did work setting this manually. Thank you! The most frustrating part of this all is that just installing the driver did not bring that up, the instructions don't tell you to do that, but above all, they tell you to use some stupid fucking application that requires you to have a login, your email, and your phone number to get to that stupid settings menu to set the size of the label which was unnecessary all along for the setup of this product.

Hey Louis, at 1:45 it's shown "Microsoft IPP Class Driver" that means the driver is not installed correctly, or it is not being used as default. You should go to printer properties, change the driver, if installed. If it is not shown, then it's not installed correctly Try to install it using the .inf file, if provided, worst of cases you have to dig and search the .inf file, in whatever they sent to you

Hah hah hah - good luck to you sir! At least if you stay with the 4xx series of DYMO I suppose you can keep with your preferred brand. I recently switched over to Brother for my laser + label printing, there were some moments because of Stallman's BS software but overall at least now everything works. No matter what anyone here suggests, you KNOW it's going to be a clusterf*ck, especially because it's you, and we all know how user-friendly you are to software.

Check the driver you are using on the printer. That menu you got when you went to properties looks like the default driver menu. Maybe that would help

@Psi105 Год назад

Some of the cheap label printers don't seem to save/apply setting changes until you power cycle the printer. I dunno if your problem is the same, but maybe give it at try. Mine also keeps separate label settings for each USB port on the system. So if you change the USB port all the settings go back to default or whatever you used on that usb port last time. I cant really complain though, it was like $40 and it actually prints labels once i figured out all its quirks

@AJSax0n Год назад

To be fair a lot of the issues with label printers is a result of windows issues. Life changed for me in this world when I learned about the "Print servers properties" option in windows. It lets you manually edit the preset windows uses to force things to print the way you want. For example if you have an app that only wants to print to a specific label preset you can go in and edit the dimensions and settings of that preset to be whatever you want it to be.

@22tekNIKal Год назад

I really think your best bet might be with a Zebra printer. It might not be 100% plug and play, but they've always been extremely solid in my experience and pretty reasonably-priced for what you get. The hospital I worked at had dozens of ZD410's for wristband printing (similar size to what you're printing there) and those things were absolute workhorses and pretty foolproof. I'm not sure how their driver would handle what you're throwing at it specifically since ours were printed to from the pre-programmed EMR system directly, but I don't think it'd be too hard to get ironed out in your case. Like someone else in here mentioned though, make sure you have the correct driver for your printer regardless of what you use, life can be hell without it.

@daveddog Год назад

Go with Zebra printer, we have it at work and it's good, you can use different labels, ones that are thermo sensitive or you use ordinary labels with ribbon and thermo transfer. And it's cheap.

@buning_sensations5437 Год назад

I had something like this happen with an old dotmatrix printer back in the mid '90s printing on FDA compliant labels. I had to edit the print driver spacing. I wonder if the driver you have is based on a similar old printer. If you open the lib files you may discover what that driver is and find old tech doc for it to make edits. Good luck!

@darrennew8211 Год назад

The number of devices whose drivers haven't been updated for a decade is astounding. I used to buy Matrox graphics cards, because the one I bought for Win95 had drivers released for each version of windows right up to WinXP. I see their newer cards have drivers for every 64-bit OS, Windows and Linux. Hardware As A Service really sucks.

@crazygeorgelincoln Год назад

Hi. (1) Maybe give document default layout more padding , when it gets minced by the print dialogue hopefully the bit you want is on the paper. (2)thermal and a dot matrix POS RECEIPT PRINTERS work well with Windows, gettting them to line up with predefined labels would be a nightmare. (i made art installation instant photos from a lens projecting onto flatbed scanner then it spits out a selfie) (3) A scotch tape dispenser wouldn't be the end of the world. I also have a craft gadget toy that turns anything into a sticker ,it's not efficient with material or cheap to fill. (4) go oldscool use a chinagraph pencil.

GoDex are OK, but if you have to deal with labels just do yourself a HUGE favor and go with Zebra; especially the ones with built in cutters.

@@ChipGuy You can use a Raspberry Pi (if you can find one these days!) as a print server.

What broke on the Dymo?

@DocNo27 Год назад

Look at point of sale printers from professional companies like Zebra - especially the ones with built in cutters. Yeah, the printers are a bit more expensive but the paper for them is dirt cheap. And they last forever. I had a trio of them printing out thousands of labels a week for over 10 years and the only maintenance on them was changing the paper, cleaning out the occasional scraps left over from the cutter and wiping the print heads down with alcohol once a year whether they needed it or not. I think we had to replace the blades in them maybe one time too. And one needed a new set of rollers. Dymo and the consumer oriented brands are more damn trouble than they are worth.

@DocNo27 Год назад

Oh yeah, always install the driver before plugging any new device in. Windows is a lot better than it used to be, but it's a LOT easier long term if you can remember to install the driver first. Of course, I never do 🙃

and jea use the Right Driver for the Rollo printer and you would geht you Menus ;) its Windows

@neverwinterasmr6966 Год назад

Bro you can get it. It has to be done in windows settings. Not the app. There's a tutorial on RU-vid.

Try switching to Landscape. See what happens.

Louis, get a used Zebra label printer off of ebay - those are the ones that are used in more commercial applications - they probably have better software too. Most "consumer" products are complete crap - especially the software / drivers.

@printdurableuniquelabels5697 Год назад

Try a Zebra-compatible ARKSCAN 2054A. It comes with an ultralite version of bartender label design software. You can easily calibrate the printer to the label size and design label layouts. You normally need to buy the label design software seperately. The ultra lite version is good enough for most people

Why not buy some label printers in Alibaba?

@AL6S00740 Год назад

Buy a freaking ZEBRA COMMERCIAL PRINTER

@lordofdrones Год назад

What about Brother or Zebra? Looks like a driver issue though. Manually install it if you haven't. Edit: JFC lad, it even says clearly in the advanced menu, you're using a generic Microsoft driver. PEBCAK.

@ltsiver Год назад

It looks like it is using the wrong driver. Microsoft IPP printer is not a rollo label printer.

@groot6830 Год назад

Why didn't you just buy the Dymo 4XL?! They sell for $200 on Amazon and are exactly the same as the 450 except wider. Failing that why didn't you just buy a Brother label printer, which is basically the industry standard...

Man wouldn't it be great if someone gets some Chinese label printer going with custom drivers or develops something new. Maybe there is like an org that would sponsor such a development for an open source device with free and open drivers and software

I'm sure there is an army of patent lawyers just waiting. Adobe will want postscript and font money, and Xerox/HP and the gang probably own a metric fuck ton in the mechanical paper handling side.

@bigMax1337 Год назад

@@meeponinthbit3466 i was dreaming with the last part there. most likely you will be able to even team up with some chinese fab and have community developed drivers and software that actually work. that's kinda why i named that first. it's the most reasonable and plausible way to have some competition in that space

you've got wrong drivers maybe? I see that your printing device isnt detected as thremal printer, but as usual one

Repairshopr is good but i find it kinda annoying, especially for stuff like this and for doing walk in sales, so many clicks to complete a sale. Have you tried repairQ ?

Installed printer wrong need correct drivers

@asm_nop Год назад

I appreciate that Microsoft had the idea to aggregate packages and create universal drivers, but their implementation is awful and lacks transparency. There's no notification or choice presented to the user before it silently sets windows loose to clever its way out of the problem with a blindfold and duct tape. Automatic generic drivers have saved and screwed me too many times to count, but the success rate is unacceptably low.

I use linux for my own machines but the ticketing software i use and the shipping stuff doesn't have anything to make ti simple to mass print labels. so stuck with a windows computer for that.

@ericclone Год назад

@@louisrossmannsrandomwhatever Yeah, I know. (I guess my joke was not obvious?) I wrote operating system in my previous job and I would say windows is one of those operating systems that "just work" (>99% of the time). MacOS is also not bad but it doesn't have nearly as many applications so I am totally with you.

@gorak9000 Год назад

@@ericclone I've been using linux as my daily driver main machine since about 2001 (pretty much Debian Sid the whole time). A lot of the times, it "just works" too, but it's way better now than back 20 years ago. Except when the KDE Plasma transition happened - those were some rough times. I can't even remember the last time I had to compile a custom kernel :)

I hate what these printer companies are doing you can't use aftermarket ink because it will know. The convenience of the internet allowed printers to brick themselves.

Installing a WLAN Printer my Wife bought a few years back brought me to the point where I sat in the driveway and was ready to roll over it with the car. My Wife saved it then. But it never ever connected to the WLAN and only sometimes worked via USB. Bought the best rated and tested printer half a year later and every thing was a breeze.

@WixelyHolmes Год назад

It looks like you aren't using the right drivers for it. If you are using the drivers that Windows installed for you it's likely the reason. Remove device, nuke the drivers you have, use the drivers from their site, only then put the device back in after you do that or Windows will half ass it.

Wrong Drivers

@KriptoSeriak Год назад

@Hybris51129 In my 20 something years in Print Production, I found out that there are a few very bad settings that all printers come with. The secret is to change the Default Printer Preferences from the start. In Windows it's best done from the Devices and Printers panel, by right clicking the printer and changing settings from there. If you do this from a software you are printing from, it will always revert to those annoying Default Settings each time you print. And, for Mental Health's sake, avoid using the Printing Software the Printer came with! It's usually developed by people who have never used a Printer before.

@VirdX Год назад

firstly Printers are brain dead machines 2nd try a different driver version, yours seems to be just a plug and play quick install (disable win update, so it doesn't "correct" it) 3rd a few restarts are probably going to be needed, printers have a hard time remembering what you just told them
